Prospering at home between the flint
hills and wheat fields of their native
Kansas, The Belles are a two-piece (give
or take a few friends) born of the
underrepresented elements of Lawrence,
KansasÆ music scene. Although Lawrence is
better known as home to more declamatory
musical stylings (The Get Up Kids, The
Anniversary, The Appleseed Cast), The
Belles have purposefully channeled the
tradition of crafted songwriting and
lagging downbeats more akin to locals
such as Gene Clark or Freedy Johnson. In
2003, The Belles proclaimed themselves
ôprairie rock,ö a gospel they spread
across the U.S. and Europe throughout the
year supporting their brilliant debut,
Omert╖, a self-described synthesis of
Neil Young and Neil Finn, Paul Westerberg
and Paul McCartney. 2004Æs Idle Acres
brings Pete Donnelly of The Figgs on
board to produce, engineer, and play bass
on seven new songs that edge The Belles
closer to the space-folk of bands like
Grandaddy, Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, Wilco
and Giant Sand. Additional recording,
engineering as well as mixing by the
Godfather of Kansas, Ed Rose (The Get Up
Kids, Limbeck, Matt Suggs, The Appleseed
Cast, Coalesce).
Retail As Always!! Enjoy!
